The students of B. H. S. paraded down State Street to the football field where pep talks, a bon- fire, and a lot of cheering touched off the week's spirited campaigning. Friday night was the big game. After the crowd had voted for their favorite candidates, they turned their attention to the field, but their enthusiasm was suddenly dampened by an icy downpour which rained out the band and the card section. The Homecoming festivities came to a pleasant end Saturday night with the Homecoming Dance. This was held in the dining room of the Community Building which was cleverly decorated. Finally, when the big moment had arrived, the junior candidates, Marvin Schuster and Sallie Strate were proclaimed King and Queen of the 1954 Homecoming. Everyone was proud of a well conducted Homecoming and a deserving King and Queen. 746n0t?WtdrZl666t Dave James, Paul Artlip, Alan Steurer, Jerry Curm- ingham, Sallie Strate, Marvin Schuster, Peggy Luckow, Andrealiowlctt, JudyPetersor1, Caro1How- lett.

McKeown, ep 6544 The Pep Club of 1954-55 was the largest organization in school. Mem- bers signed up and paid their dues at the first of the year. Although the list grew slowly at first, the lower hall was the scene of a milling mob of prospec- tive Pep Clubbers as the final deadline dawned. Members were then entitled to first choice of seats in the cheering sections at football and basketball games and for the first time member- ship cards were issued. The advisors were Miss Werth and Mr. Lewis. The Pep Club had to get well organized at once, because its first and biggest job was Homecoming. The newly elected officers and advisory board took over complete responsibility, and everyone pitched in to make the pep rallies, the game, and the dance suc- cessful. The Pep Club supplied the yelling at the games, aided and abetted by an enthusiastic cheerleading squad, who backed the Bucs with a lot of spirit and vigor throughout the year. President.
